Morrisons, Sainsbury's, Tesco and Asda have cut the price of their fuel.

The UK's main supermarkets have all cut their petrol and diesel prices.

Morrisons led the way, announcing petrol would be cut by 2p per litre, while diesel would be reduced by 1p per litre.

Morrisons said that with a sunny Bank Holiday in prospect, it expected to see many families filling up their tanks for days out and wanted to pass savings on beforehand.

Sainsbury's quickly followed suit, cutting both petrol and fuel by up to 2p per litre. Asda has also cut its fuel by up to 2p and now Tesco has done the same.
